Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Having played too much zombie mod on Counter-Strike Source, the first thing that came to my head was "no, Fluttershy, don't throw that grenade in the middle of the horde, it'll just push them over our barricades!"

I tried to imagine how would the main cast look if they were given different body types, rather than all having the same one (as in the show). So I imagined it and drew it, duh.
Here are the main reasons as to why I drew each pony the way I did:

Fluttershy - going mostly for slightly older than others look, while at the same time trying to capture her beauty and grace (as described by Rarity in Green isn't your color). Plus thanks to Fillyshy I always picture FS as the tallest of the group.

Twilight - I tried to give her an average build, one which would be the closest to the actual show, however she may appear slightly pudgy because I used mostly round shapes when drawing her snout.

Pinkie - pudgy due to her eating habits, but only slightly, thanks to her hyperactivity; slightly bigger and bulkier than unicorns, as I imagine all earth ponies are.

Rainbow Dash - Hoo boy, where to begin. First of all I imagine most of the pegasi have a rather small posture, which helps them to fly. Secondly - I pictured RD as the angry midget of the group (you know these types - pintsized, loud and obnoxious). Lastly, I decided to give her a pair of large wings to help her perform her flying stunts.

Rarity - slim and graceful as Fluttershy but not as tall and slightly less skinny.

Applejack - a real powerhouse of a pony, even bigger than other earth ponies, with powerful legs and toned flanks, all thanks to years of applebucking.

Oooh oooh! Can I join in on the "Ponies cast as characters from some other thing" bandwagon?

Ponies as Batman villains!

Twilight Sparkle is The Riddler: incredibly intelligent, but has a tendancy to get too caught up in her own booksmarts and let it lead to her downfall.

Applejack is Bane: The powerhouse. But unlike the typical stereotypical brute, she's quite smart, too. Willfull and hardworking, she's determined to prove herself, and will sometimes take desperate measures to get the job done.

Rarity is Catwoman: Is into the finer things in life. Jewels and stylish clothes are the kinds of things that catch her eye. Has a talent for using her wits and charm to get out of a tough spot.

Fluttershy is Poison Ivy. She loves nature, and has that wispy, soothing voice. Also, she's a tree.

Pinkie Pie is Harley Quinn: Bubbly and fun-loving taken to the extreme. Has a tendency to not realize the seriousness of the situation.

Gilda is The Joker: Likes to pull cruel and malicious pranks on others for her own amusement. But when the tables turn and she's made into the punchline, her bad attitude shines through. Also, is too hard on poor Harley Pie.

Spike is The Penguin: He may look odd and out of place, but he is one classy motherfucker and a total pimp mack daddy.

Trixie is The Scarecrow: Subjects people to wild and fanciful illusions, but deep down is an insecure fraud.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders are the Terrible Trio: Because there are three of them and they are Terrible.

Princess Celestia is Ras Al Ghul: She may seem like a benevolent ruler, but secretly she is evil incarnate, out to rule with an iron hoof.

Luna is Talia Al Ghul: Is she the kind and caring relative of Celestia Al Ghul, or deep down is she an even greater villain?

"When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." -C.S. Lewis

Oh good lord. That new Eurobeat Brony mix is absolutely awesome. I'm not really a big fan of Luna (though I expect to like her more when she shows up in season 2), but the song really captures what her character must feel. Reading through the youtube comments I saw that Eurobeat Brony, or rather as his other name Ken Blast has contributed to the Super Eurobeat mixes. Considering I just started tracking the albums down once he started mixing pony tracks, that's insane. I applaud you, Eurobeat Brony. I'm going to buy the SHIT out of your album once it's complete.

Lady Gaga was chief-editor of a Dutch news paper yesterday. Why is this relevant? Apparently a Dutch brony won a contest and was her assistant through the day. He made an MLP necklace and gave it to her, and she's been wearing it proudly ever since. Apparently there are pictures of her wearing it at a press conference, and I'm currently looking it up.

I heard an interview with the guy over the phone on the radio (3FM) and he was talking about his day and how everything went and suddenly he started talking about My Little Pony... I was in the car with my mother and seriously, she thought I was going crazy. I laughed my ass off. :yay:

EDIT: Apparently Gaga was 'touched' by a letter he wrote to her. He also mentioned he was declined from an art school to which she replied 'fuck art school, you're getting a job'. Now he's going to design the covers of her upcoming singles. WAY TO GO BRONY!
